Process for manufacture of a semiconductor memory device

摘要

A semiconductor memory device such as a MOS dynamic RAM comprises transistor portions (2, 3 and 5) for writing and reading a signal and capacitor portions (1, 2, 6 and 9) by pn junction for storing a signal. The capacitor portions have preferably as large a capacitance as possible. For this purpose, a capacitor hole (7) is formed in a p type semiconductor substrate (6) and an n type semiconductor region (9) is provided along the capacitor hole (7) so that the pn junction area therebetween is increased and the capacitance is made large.
